RE: Limited edition silver steem round up for auction! 😁
OH, C'MON MAN !!! At todays rate, you are asking people to, "BID," $31.30 USD for a silver STEEM coin?!?! That's not a "BID," - that's a rather steep buying price. Steemians aren't THAT stupid. I think you're on the wrong site. Who are you trying to fool? Why are you even on this site? I wouldn't bid that much money on your coin unless silver spot was up around $25+, but we are quite far away from that right now. A more realistic "auction" would be for a much, much lower entry cost. But, that's just my opinion. Good luck with your, "auction/sale/rip-off" scheme.
Your blog page says you "love the Lord," but it seems much more like YOU LOVE YOUR MONEY. Go and do some soul-searching!
UNFOLLOWED.
Hey man. Thanks for your comment. I can tell you’re not a very smart man. So I’ll go slow. First you obviously don’t know much about steem or SBD. But for your info they fluctuate. And can fluctuate quite a bit. So, I start my auctions with that in mind. I can start an auction at 35 SBD, which is equivalent to about $31, and after 7 days SBD could be only worth .80 cents or even .70 cents. It wasn’t too long ago, maybe a month and SBD was .59 cents. So if that were to happen then 35 SBD would be worth about $21. I also pick up the tab for shipping and packaging in the US which runs about $5.
And if you’re so concerned about me selling a limited edition silver steem round for $31, you should probably reach out and contact all the world mints that produce limited edition silver coins and rounds for a whole lot more than $31 dollars. Just saying.
The stupidity in the rest of your comments speaks for itself so I won’t comment any further except to say you should probably apologize for calling your fellow Steemians stupid. I’ve sold many a steem coin to fellow “Steemians” for more than 35 SBD.
I said Steemians aren't THAT stupid, which is - in fact - calling nobody stupid. Which, makes you... ? Easily butthurt? And, strangely, demanding an apology for an offense you imagined I gave. But, whatever...
My own very nice and shiny Steem rounds were originally picked up for about $22.50 - which included shipping. So, yeah, selling them a year later for an $8 markup is damn GREEDY of you, IMHO. And, I hope that nobody bids on your overpriced silver. And, I don't think that any Steemian will - because Steemians are generally pretty smart people.
I mean, Steem rounds are nice looking items - but they aren't $30 or $32 nice, when spot is $15 or $16.
If you really have to spend your time trying to hustle other Steemians for $8 here and there, WTH is that?!?! Maybe you should just go straight over to creating a, "GoFundMe" charity page for yourself, because you seem desperate for the cash. Just sayin.
Did you even read my reply? You make no sense. And really aren’t worth my time replying. And you’re right. You said that they aren’t “That stupid”. Which implies that they wouldn’t be stupid enough to pay 35 SBD for a steem coin. And like I said. I’ve sold many a steem coin for MORE than 35 SBD. I’ve sold some for over 40 SBD. So you are calling your fellow steemians stupid! At least those that did spend 35 SBD on one of my auctions.
And finally. It sounds like you need a basic understanding of math. I’m not talking calculus here. But you obviously can’t read or didn’t read my previous post. I set my auctions up based on simple math. Once again. SBD fluctuates. And can fluctuate enormously. And once again. Simply math buddy. Where do you get $8 from? As I said in my previous post, which you obviously didn’t read, it costs me $5 to ship and package these. Let me break that down for you. Again I know you’re slow. 31 minus 5 is 26. So if I paid 22.50 like you say you did. Then that’s like $3.50.
Simple math buddy. You could probably go a little farther in life if you learned it.
😁
"I’ve sold some for over 40 SBD."
"31 minus 5 is 26."
"Simple math buddy. You could probably go a little farther in life if you learned it.
😁"
So, are you selling them for 40, or 31 ??? Or, is that too complicated for you to explain? Or, do you just switch out your numbers until you come up with an answer which better suits your arguments? Could it be that you have to fudge your numbers because you actually ARE overcharging people for Steem rounds?
Is there a reason why you keep on moving your hypothetical SBD price downwards in your explanations, when the actual SBD price has been steadily rising in the recent past?
Do you just change out the numbers whenever it suits your "fuzzy math" and it's more convenient when attempting to obfuscate your bankrupt position?
It's quite fascinating to watch your mental gymnastics in trying to rationalize overcharging people. Were you aware that this kind of "rationalization" is actually a common criminal behavior? Care to explain and rationalize other ways of thinking about how to rip people off? Please continue...
I knew you didn't know anything about SBD or steem. Now you don’t know anything about dollars either. If you had paid attention in grade school maybe you would of figured out what dollars are. Again I know you’re slow, but I see you did use some big college words in your previous comment. So you must have a little bit of education. I know I’m using rather large numbers and you probably have to take off your shoes to count that high, but the difference between 40 and 31 is one is SBD and the other is dollars. I’ll let you figure out which is which.
Please continue with your stupid comments.
I know enough about Steem and SBD to say that you've lost about 20 times more money on them than I have. So, no, I'm sure your pain and personal loss far exceeds mine - thus you have learned about 20 times more from your mistakes, hopefully.
You - "31 minus 5 is 26. So if I paid 22.50 like you say you did. Then that’s like $3.50."
Me - "You're paying $37.20 for a coin that's worth, maybe, $25 ???"
$37.20 minus $26 = $11.20
Earlier, you asked me where I came up with my figure of $8. I was trying to be a little bit conservative and not attribute even more greed to your enterprise, but you're basically making $11.20 per coin, in this current situation. So, minus your shipping cost, $8 was in the ballpark of... $6.20 to $11.20, which is pretty close to, "straight down the center."
I would NEVER shop for coins carrying a $6.20 premium, because that's just very bad "stacking" practices. And, any Steemians exercising bad stacking practices need to correct their heading, in order to maximize their profits. That would mean steering well clear of characters such as yourself.
Any Steemian who is paying you $37.20 for a coin that's realistically closer in value to $25 or $26 IS, in fact, a stupid person. And, if my apology would actually make someone a smarter person, I would be happy to give it.
